WW: The Arrival of Summer & FREE Template

We've had a hint of summer here in the last couple weeks with the end of soccer, gardening, lemonade stands, thunderstorms, and critters by the dozens... And now the countdown is on. Only 5 days of school left, if half days count. I'm stoked for the carefree, unstructured days ahead. If only the kids had the same vision as me, ha!

And as a way of saying thank you for stopping by, here's a FREE template download! It could be a great layout for a newsletter, scrap page or blog post. Just drag and drop your favorite papers or photos. You can find my step by step clipping instructions here. If you have a chance to try it out, make sure to let me know so I can share your work.

We've compiled the photography tips and tutorials shared throughout the challenge, threw them into a lovely e-book and wrapped it up with a pretty little bow, especially for you. Thank you to all who participated in our Spring Challenge.

We have a fun, laid back project in the works for summer, so stay tuned...

  24. The last day of school for our kiddo was last Friday. She's enjoyed sleeping late as only a teenager can.

    The Queen Ann's Lace is beautiful. I realized recently how interesting they are from the bottom. It really does pay off to change your perspective occassionally.
